Freaky Frank Foster's rape
trial starts this week with Carla, Maria and Peter up in the
dock. Carla's in tears
and Frank's got a sly grin on his face as he stitches up Leanne in
the gallery. Just as the lawyer questions Peter and demands to know
the answer to the question: "Are you having a relationship with
Carla Connor?" Peter falters and doesn't want to answer. Not in
front of Leanne any road. And as he falters, Frank's mum Anne passes
Leanne photos of Carla kissing Peter, photos that Frank's private
detective has taken.
"Yes," admits Peter, defeated, while Leanne screams across
the court room and runs out in tears.
On a lighter note, it's the
music competition in the Rovers and Norris and Sylvia go head to
head, she's on her uke-banjo and he's on his keyboard. But Norris isn't playing,
it's an automatic keyboard that plays itself so not only was he
planning to cheat but then the keyboard packs up and Norris tells
Sylvia the competition's off.
Ah, but there's a piano in the cupboard at the Rovers and
everyone urges Norris on to tinkle the ivories instead. He's
sweating because he can't play a note but fortunately Mary saves him
from embarrassment by banging the piano lid down hard on his hands
so that he can't play.
You'd think Sylvia would be irked
by Norris' nonsense, but no. Her head's turned with Milton from her
cruise ship, the rich American she met, who swans into the Rovers
and sweeps her heart away. "Milton Fanshaw the third,"
he says, introducing himself to Roy who replies: "Roy Cropper, the
first." The one and
only, more like. Roy's taken with the
affection that Milton shows his mum and tells Hayley, somewhat
bemused: "He actually appears to like her!"
Down the Street, Steve
tries to get his marriage to Tracy annulled but for legal reasons he
can't. Tracy has to want it, which she clearly doesn't, so Becky's
revenge of having Steve chained to the cow looks set to ring
true. But how will
Steve get rid of Tracy now?
Tracy moves into No. 13 when Ken chucks her out, determined
to play happy families with Steve, which is the last thing he wants.
"I don't love you, I've never loved you and I never will," he tells
her. So while he might
have no choice but to live with her under the same roof, for Amy's
sake if nowt else, he comes up with a plan to split the house in
half and enlists Owen's help.
Over at the Rovers, Eileen
tells everyone that she and Paul are a couple while Paul tries to
look as if he's not there. It doesn't stop the gossips though,
they've got their tuppence to say about Paul being married to a wife
with dementia. Jason
gives Paul the worst kind of flak, which is rightly deserved, but
over a bit of male bonding involving a power tool and a chunk of
wood, Jason tries to understand Paul's despair at what's going on
between Paul and his wife.
And this week's "Come Into
The Back and Tell Me All About It" award goes to Deirdre Barlow who
fell for the fatal line from Saint Stella of the Rovers. Who will it be next week?
Barlow's Bookies are open for you to lay your bets
now.
And that's just about that for
